    Pur Water Reclaim Down

    If when you are filling the strainer and it never overflows. Sounds like a check valve down in your tank isn't working. I'm asuming there is a check valve in your tank not sure though.

    Mark V11 ChoiceWash XT

    I have 2 of these machines. My bays are 16 ft wide by 50 ft long. I measured the machine and as it sets in the bay with the energy chain along side of it It is setting at 14'3". It could be narrowed up a bit if you make the energychain a little bit closer to the machine. Another possibility is...

    Auto tellers

    I looked at the touchscreens awhile back. Really like the looks but just started looking into cost of replacement parts that might get damaged from vandalizm. New screens were way to expensive. I was at a ica show and saw that standard change had come out with a new paystation Guardian XP (not a...

    Ryko "Bay Pay" or Wash Card or Wash Gear for my Self Serves

    I have had Washcard for years and like it. I also like there website design for my wash. I link all three of my washes together with washcard. If there is a problem I have called them to let them know and they just get into my site remotely and fix it before I even get to my wash.

    Reverse osmosis problem

    i have a Mark VII unit. It will shut off if my main water pressure drops low. If it drops to about 20 psi it will shut it down until pressure returns to about 40 psi. It is also possible your pressure switch is going bad. I would add a gauge before and after the filters.

    Electrician Bailed, No Permit, Need Final

    Did the inspectors ever come out before he left? did you have a automatic in there before? If so how about just trying to open it up. I have replaced my automatics before and have never got a permit. Just make sure the electrical is up to code.

    In-Bay and Vac Station Lights

    I would look at your lighting as it is. Is it bright enough? If it isn't I wouldn't think about less lumens. My new wash I have all 320w metal halide. Super bright. I have 175w metal halide in my older washes but they could stand to be brighter. I thought about trying to save on the power but...

    When I started out everyone tried to sell me one of each. Well that puts me back where I am at my other 2 washes. A single machine that if it goes down you have no backup. I have been doing carwashes for over 20 years and in that time my machines have broke several times but I pretty much do...

    Aquamizer 1000 reclaim?

    Well that is what this whole discussion is about is trying to figure that out. It has been a process of elimination. Right now I think the pump isn't pumping the correct amount of water. So that affects the ozone because it doesn't has as much suction to add it to the water.

    Raypak Boiler Not Working

    Sounds like the thing you are pushing on is a flow switch. Does it screw into the boiler. If so unscrew it and look to see if the flapper on the end is broke. If it is it wont sense flow.

    Aquamizer 1000 reclaim?

    The tanks are bigger than they call for but they said that was better. No Leaks all the fittings that were broke have been fixxed. I have already sent the ozone back to them to check and they said it was ok.

    Spot Free Pump Short Cycling during Foam Brush

    How about all the connections to the rotary switch all the way back to your equipment room. check to see if you have any stray wires making a connection. Such as when you make your connections and twist the wires to put in connectors. Make sure now loose stands are touching the wrong connector.

    Spot Free Pump Short Cycling during Foam Brush

    do you have a rotary switch out in the bay? If so it sounds like it is making the connection out there. Try a new switch our swap from another bay and see what happens.

    I know where the ozone genorator is on this machine and it is producing ozone. But trying to figure out if it producing what it should. Yes it has a warranty.

    Aquamizer 1000 reclaim?

    Yes that is the website. The water quality smell just hasn't been as good as it should be. When I got the unit it was damaged. Looked good but after a really close inspection the 2 pumps were broke loose. I don't think that is the cause of the problems, it was just a coulpe of plastic fittings...
